[DRMAA-WG] DRMAA conformance rules

Hi,

I got a comment for the IDL spec that we do not have a clear  
declaration of "conformance". Therefore, here is my suggestion for  
some text block in the IDL spec:

-- snip

A language binding document is allowed to use “DRMAA 1.0” in its  
document title, if all interface and mapping rules and suggestions  
from this document are considered in the language binding. An  
implementation of the DRMAA API for a particular programming language  
and DRM system can be called “DRMAA 1.0 compliant”, if (A) the API  
implementation and behavior confirms to a “DRMAA 1.0” language  
binding document, or this document. In case of conflicts, the  
language-specific binding specification has precedence.

-- snip

What do you think ?
Peter.
